I am In perfect health, so it
csn't be that. My two older
brothers and my older sister have

My mother and dad both had

I suppose I am foolish to
worry over something I cant
help, but lt has developed Into
an inferiority complex which I
have tried hard to overcome but
failed. I dread to be Introduced
to the opposite orx.. I decline all
Invitations to parties and I have
n't many friends. My mother
thinks It Is because I cant agree
with them, but I know different,
but of course I cant tell her that.
Three years ago I had an x-ray
picture made of my mouth, and
no teeth were to be seen. Since
then I have developed a fear of
the dentist. I can't tell Just
why. but I have. I am writing
this when nobody Is at home but
me. for fear they will think me
foolish, but If they were In my
boots they would do the eame.
I dont know If you can make
head or tall of thla letter, but
please try to understand me. and
not think me a foolish, silly
girl. Tour constant reader.
First .let's look up the usual pe
riod of development of the second or
permanent teeth. I never can re

the famous "six-year" molars, the
first of the permanent teeth to ap

six years- Next, we find, come the

Meat Is Good Food.
Is there anything In the recent
theory that people should not eat
lean meat as lt la not good for the
bralnf H. O. M.
Answer That la not a theory. It
la Just some nut's Imagination. As
a general health rule, everyone should
take a fair amount of meat, both
fat and lean. There is no horse-
sense In the Idea that thla or that
food la particularly good for this or
that organ, or portlcularly bad for
it. All such notions belong In the
cstegory with Mark Twsln's applica
tion of the Idea that fish Is a brain
food.

Banks and his company did deduct
this three quarters of a cent from

signature of one or more of these
parties, other than himself, their
statement of what the true facts sre.
During all thla time Mr. Banks'
company has owed Mr. Barnum a
large indebtedness, tne collection or
which he had refrained from pressing
but under the existing conditions Mr.
Barnum has felt Justified In taking
such steps as he could to protect
himself and his associates and has
done this by bringing an action on
his claim and attaching auch pro

can find.
The statement that I have ever
solicited or sought any business
sgalnst Mr. Banks or his company Is
unqualifiedly false. On the contrary.
I have consistently discouraged my
clients from bringing actions sgalnst
him. The action of Corn vs. sun-
crest Orchards was commenced in
November on the Instruction of my
client and an attachment was issued
end plsced in the hands of the sher

That Is a dangerous habit of mind

We must guard against lt.
But the dangers of NOT providing
relief are far greater than the dangers
of providing it.

So, with all their shortcomings,
with all their imperfections, with all
their abuses, the public relief systems
that are in operation in all the va
rious communities are eminently
worth while.
No one who goes into their opera
tion at all thoroughly can doubt that.
